The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 679 - DON'T LOOK!

Jedrek didn't have any idea about the consequences of the deal that Janus made with the devils could lead them to this catastrophe. How could his father became so stupid to bend his knees in order to save his mate?!

That was a stupid decision!

Jedrek despised for having Lilac. No, he loathed the fact that he was having a mate, yet, he couldn't help but started to fall into his fate.

He couldn't deny that he couldn't hurt Lilac, at the very least, not after this bond gets stronger as the days go by.

Anger rose in Jedrek's throath, he was furious beyond words. However, one thing that he didn't know, someone had gone to go to the extra miles for him.

Similar thing that Janus did for Diana.

Jedrek felt like he almost lost his temper, thus he let go Lilac's hand. He didn't want to crush that fragile hand again. The first time he did it was an accident and his beast almost killed him with agony. He didn't need to feel that way at time like this.

Meanwhile, Lilac followed Jedrek back into the previous chamber. From inside she could hear another explosion with a sound like a small bomb.

Jedrek had just let go of Lilac's arm, but then he flung his arms over her head and pulled her closer into the chamber when a big piece of tunnel ceiling fell straight to the floor.

At the same time, Eaton grabbed Airin's shoulder and pulled her away from the imminent danger, as the ceiling collapsed and blocked their way. Next moment, the two of them were standing in the dark, gazing at the solid wall of broken rock. Separated from Jedrek and Lilac.

"Jedrek! Are you okay!?" Eaton tried to move the rock to get to him, but he had to stop before the ceiling of the tunnel collapsed again.

Inside the chamber, Jedrek gritted his teeth when he examined Lilac's body and looked at her terrified face. The tension loosened a little when he saw that she was okay. It was a close call. "I am fine!" Jedrek shouted back to Eaton. "Stay there, I will find a way to get to you!"

Lilac blinked her eyes to get back to her senses, what was just happening simply too terrifying, and only then she realized that they had been separated.

"I think I can lift those rocks," Lilac said.

"And risk another collapsing rock when your roots emerge from the ground? No. We have to get you out from here," Jedrek said sternly.

Lilac swatted Jedrek's hand, which was about to drag her again. "And leave them here?!" Lilac asked in disbelieve. "No, I will not go anywhere."

Jedrek glared at her.

However, their argumentation was cut short when Lilac's eyes widened in horror as she watched something behind Jedrek's back. Something scaly and big, with its body slithering on the ground.

"Jedrek!" she shrieked.

Even before Lilac called his name, he knew this creature was there. Therefore, he needed to get Lilac out of here.

Very fast. Jedrek pressed Lilac's head to his chest, preventing her to look another second longer. He could feel his mate's body was trembling.

Jedrek knew what was happening behind his back through the reflection of the shadow on the stone wall.

"Stay here," Jedrek said in stern voice. "I mean it. Stay. Here." He emphasized every word, so Lilac could understand how serious he was now.

"What is that?" her voice cracked in fear. She knew it was not a normal serpent.

"Basilisk," Jedrek said through gritted teeth. The creatures that came out from Tartarus were getting worse and worse.

Lilac was panic- stricken when Jedrek turned her body around, so she faced the stone wall and let go of her. She knew what basilisk was and what this monster capable of.

In matter of second, Lilac could hear vicious growls and snarls from behind her back. Apparently, Jedrek had shifted into his beast and fought the monster. She didn't have any idea how he did it, as no one could see the Basilisk's eyes.

However, Lilac had another important task in her hand.

There was a loud explosive sound behind her and then something heavy hit the wall near Lilac. It must be the serpent's body. Even though Lilac couldn't see it, but she could hear its heavy body slithering heavily across the dusty floor.

If this situation continued, this place would collapse, thus, bending her knees, Lilac put her palms flat to the ground and did what she had to do.

The ground was shaking, but this time not because of the monster that emerged from Tartarus, but from the power that Lilac gathered.

The ground seemed to move with an immense waves, just as the serpent hit the wall again and the ceiling almost collapsed, branches as thick as python sprung from the ground and hit the ceiling, its gnarled bough spread and held the crumbling stones firmly.

Lilac narrowed her eyes to keep it steady. Not only inside the chamber, Lilac also extended her power beyond it, to make sure Eaton and Airin were safe at the other side.

"What is happening there!?" Eaton demanded answer, but Lilac barely could speak in her current state.

However, in the next second, she felt someone grabbed her arms and spun her body. Lilac shrieked, but then realized, it was Jedrek.

"Don't look," Jedrek said sternly when he bent his body and put his strong arms behind her back and knees to carry her.

Lilac did what she was told and buried her face on the crook of Jedrek's shoulder, after took a glance of the scaly body of the basilisk. The monster was still alive. historical

Jedrek brought her away and only put her down when Lilac could feel the breeze of the wind caressed her skin.

"Go now," Jedrek said rigidly.

"What? No, I…" Lilac was about to argue with him, but Jedrek kissed her deeply before he let her go and slammed the door from which they came.
